Smaller Fair turnout
blamed on early date
By Ann Harrell
Senior Reporter
About 450 students attended the
UNL Activities Fair this week in the
Nebraska and East unions, said Cam
pus Activities Program officials.
Judy Kawamoto, activities graduate
assistant at the City Campus CAP
office said 350 students attended Wed
nesday's program to see what the 29
booths on City Campus offered. Val
Wetzel, coordinator of East Campus
CAP said the 14 booths at Tuesday's
East Campus fair attracted 100 stu
dents. Participation in this year's City
Campus fair was down dramatically
from last year, Kawamoto said. Last
year, 44 student groups took part and
1,447 students attended. Kawamoto
blamed decreased publicity and an
earlier date for this year's decline.
After last year's fair, student evalua
tions indicated the date was too late.
This year, Kawamoto said, student
groups complained they didn't have
enough time to prepare.
But according to records, Wetzel
said, Tuesday's East Campus fair re
ceived the best turnout in recent years.
She said "a more festive atmosphere"
was responsible for the higher turnout.
"I think the more the groups get into
it and the more we create a carnival
atmosphere, the better it will be," Wet
zel said.
She said she thought attendance
would have been even better if the fair
had been outside, as originally planned.
Rain forced the fair inside.
Both women said they were pleased
w ith the fair.
"Everyone wins when they partici
pate," Wetzel said.

Double duty?
Tom Dierks, a senior engineering major, watches Larry Kaikowski of the UNL police as he patrols
the University Bookstore. For the past month, three UNL officers Kaikowski, Roy Yardley and
Kate Kuticka have volunteered to patrol the campus on foot. Kaikowski said he doesn't have a
fixed walking beat, but must patrol residence hails and sorority and fraternity houses. "It's more
than slapping backs and shaking hands," he said. "We need to let them (students) know we're
here."

The ASUN Senate on Wednesday
passed resolutions to support further
research on compiling teacher evalua
tions and the addition of dropadd ser
vices on East Campus.
ASUN is studying a system of pub
lishing teacher evaluation books cur
rently used at Northwestern University
in Evanston, 111.
Rod Penner, ASUN first vice presi
dent, said Northwestern's evaluation
book has been used for about five years.
Penner said Northwestern's book is the
type ASUN would like to use at UNL.
Professors at Northwestern sign re
lease forms if they want to include
their evaluations in the book. Penner
said the book would help teachers
improve themselves by finding out
what students like and dislike.
The book rates teachers on a plus-three-to-minus-three
scale. Ratings are
taken from a cross-section of students.
Teachers are rated on fairness, com
munication skills and availability. Rat
ings are taken from a cross-section of
students. Teachers are rated on fair
ness, communication skills and availa
bility. Ratings made by the top and
bottom students in a class are not used
to make the book more representative
of the average student. The book also
has an essay portion for students to tell
why they rated a teacher the way they
did.
Penner said teachers would be treat
ed fairly in the UNL evaluation book
because they would have a chance to
improve themselves and gain a better
rating in the next book. He said ASUN
would like to publish the book annu
ally. He said he thinks enough people
would buy an evaluation book to make
the project pay for itself. Also, the book
would create jobs for work-study stu
dents, Penner said.
The resolution supporting the addi
tion of dropadd on East Campus says
the addition will serve the 3,500 stu
dents who primarily use East Campus.
The facilities also would decrease the num
ber of students on City Campus for
dropadd. Senators will continue to
discuss the proposal, Penner said.
In other business, the ASUN Aca
demic Committee reported it is work
ing on a bill to establish a universal
grading scale at UNL.
